Walt 'Clyde' Frazier is considered a messiah in the city of New York as he was the driving force behind the New York Knicks franchises only two NBA titles in the organization's history. Clyde Frazier was drafted fifth overall in the 1967 NBA Draft by the New York Knicks where he spent the next decade of his career wowing fans with his scrappy style of play and tough defense while averaging 19.3 points per game with the team.
Just three years into his NBA career, Frazier was able to solidify the New York Knicks first-ever NBA title after the team defeated the Los Angeles Lakers in seven games, in which the final game performance by Frazier is considered to be one of the greatest of all-time. In 1973, Frazier and the Knicks defeated the Lakers again in five games. Later, Frazier closed out his career with the Cavaliers after three seasons in 1980. These days, Frazier has some of the most eccentric suits in NBA commentary and works as an analyst for MSG Network.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
